Adb useful commands list

AdbCommands

Hi All!

I've recently launched a tool that wraps many of the commands here with a user interface. This desktop application is currently available for macOS. There's a roadmap outlining planned features for the near future.
Feel free to request any features you'd like to see, and I'll prioritize them accordingly.
One of the most important aspects of this application is that every command executed behind the scenes is displayed in a special log section. This allows you to see exactly what’s happening and learn from it.

Here's the link to the repository:  https://github.com/Pulimet/ADBugger

App Description:
ADBugger is a desktop tool designed for debugging and QA of Android devices and emulators. It simplifies testing, debugging, and performance analysis by offering device management, automated testing, log analysis, and remote control capabilities. This ensures smooth app performance across various setups.
 

=============================
adb help // List all comands

== Adb Server
adb kill-server
adb start-server 

== Adb Reboot
adb reboot
adb reboot recovery 
adb reboot-bootloader
adb root //restarts adb with root permissions

== Shell
adb shell    // Open or run commands in a terminal on the host Android device.

== Devices
adb usb
adb devices   //show devices attached
adb devices -l //devices (product/model)
adb connect ip_address_of_device

== Get device android version
adb shell getprop ro.build.version.release 

== LogCat
adb logcat
adb logcat -c // clear // The parameter -c will clear the current logs on the device.
adb logcat -d > [path_to_file] // Save the logcat output to a file on the local system.
adb bugreport > [path_to_file] // Will dump the whole device information like dumpstate, dumpsys and logcat output.

== Files
adb push [source] [destination]    // Copy files from your computer to your phone.
adb pull [device file location] [local file location] // Copy files from your phone to your computer.

== App install
adb -e install path/to/app.apk

-d                        - directs command to the only connected USB device...
-e                        - directs command to the only running emulator...
-s <serial number>        ...
-p <product name or path> ...
The flag you decide to use has to come before the actual adb command:

adb devices | tail -n +2 | cut -sf 1 | xargs -IX adb -s X install -r com.myAppPackage // Install the given app on all connected devices.

== Uninstalling app from device
adb uninstall com.myAppPackage
adb uninstall <app .apk name>
adb uninstall -k <app .apk name> -> "Uninstall .apk withour deleting data"

adb shell pm uninstall com.example.MyApp
adb shell pm clear [package] // Deletes all data associated with a package.

adb devices | tail -n +2 | cut -sf 1 | xargs -IX adb -s X uninstall com.myAppPackage //Uninstall the given app from all connected devices

== Update app
adb install -r yourApp.apk  //  -r means re-install the app and keep its data on the device.
adb install –k <.apk file path on computer> 

== Home button
adb shell am start -W -c android.intent.category.HOME -a android.intent.action.MAIN

== Activity Manager
adb shell am start -a android.intent.action.VIEW
adb shell am broadcast -a 'my_action'

adb shell am start -a android.intent.action.CALL -d tel:+972527300294 // Make a call

// Open send sms screen with phone number and the message:
adb shell am start -a android.intent.action.SENDTO -d sms:+972527300294   --es  sms_body "Test --ez exit_on_sent false

// Reset permissions
adb shell pm reset-permissions -p your.app.package 
adb shell pm grant [packageName] [ Permission]  // Grant a permission to an app. 
adb shell pm revoke [packageName] [ Permission]   // Revoke a permission from an app.


// Emulate device
adb shell wm size 2048x1536
adb shell wm density 288
// And reset to default
adb shell wm size reset
adb shell wm density reset

== Print text
adb shell input text 'Wow, it so cool feature'

== Screenshot

$ adb shell
shell@ $ screencap /sdcard/screen.png
shell@ $ exit
$ adb pull /sdcard/screen.png

---

$ adb shell
shell@ $ screenrecord --verbose /sdcard/demo.mp4
(press Control + C to stop)
shell@ $ exit
$ adb pull /sdcard/demo.mp4

== Key event
adb shell input keyevent 3 // Home btn
adb shell input keyevent 4 // Back btn

=== Few bash snippets ===
@Source (https://jonfhancock.com/bash-your-way-to-better-android-development-1169bc3e0424)

=== Using tail -n
//Use tail to remove the first line. Actually two lines. The first one is just a newline. The second is “List of devices attached.”
$ adb devices | tail -n +2

=== Using cut -sf
// Cut the last word and any white space off the end of each line.
$ adb devices | tail -n +2 | cut -sf -1

=== Using xargs -I
// Given the -I option, xargs will perform an action for each line of text that we feed into it.
// We can give the line a variable name to use in commands that xargs can execute.
$ adb devices | tail -n +2 | cut -sf -1 | xargs -I X echo X aw yiss

=== Three options below together
// Will print android version of all connected devices
adb devices | tail -n +2 | cut -sf -1 | xargs -I X adb -s X shell getprop ro.build.version.release  

=== Using alias
-- Example 1 
alias tellMeMore=echo
tellMeMore "hi there"
Output => hi there
-- Example 2
// Define alias
alias apkinstall="adb devices | tail -n +2 | cut -sf 1 | xargs -I X adb -s X install -r $1"
// And you can use it later 
apkinstall ~/Downloads/MyAppRelease.apk  // Install an apk on all devices
-- Example 3
alias rmapp="adb devices | tail -n +2 | cut -sf 1 | xargs -I X adb -s X uninstall $1"
rmapp com.example.myapp // Uninstall a package from all devices
-- Example 4
alias clearapp="adb devices | tail -n +2 | cut -sf 1 | xargs -I X adb -s X shell pm clear $1"
clearapp com.example.myapp  // Clear data on all devices (leave installed)
-- Example 5
alias startintent="adb devices | tail -n +2 | cut -sf 1 | xargs -I X adb -s X shell am start $1"
startintent https://twitter.com/JonFHancock // Launch a deep link on all devices


Setting up your .bash_profile
Finally, to make this all reusable even after rebooting your computer (aliases only last through the current session), we have to add these to your .bash_profile. You might or might not already have a .bash_profile, so let’s make sure we append to it rather than overwriting it. Just open a terminal, and run the following command

touch .bash_profile && open .bash_profile

This will create it if it doesn’t already exist, and open it in a text editor either way. Now just copy and paste all of the aliases into it, save, and close.

alias startintent="adb devices | tail -n +2 | cut -sf 1 | xargs -I X adb -s X shell am start $1"
alias apkinstall="adb devices | tail -n +2 | cut -sf 1 | xargs -I X adb -s X install -r $1"
alias rmapp="adb devices | tail -n +2 | cut -sf 1 | xargs -I X adb -s X uninstall $1"
alias clearapp="adb devices | tail -n +2 | cut -sf 1 | xargs -I X adb -s X shell pm clear $1"

Check your settings for hdmi.

audioManager.setParameters("audio_devices_out_active=AUDIO_HDMI"); | This line sets the active audio output device to HDMI.

I think you must go low level for succeed with this and it is really hard to know but if you are really a hardcode hacker and wanna go deep monitor /proc and /sys dirs when you changing output and you willl probably see wich file has been updated recently if you are quick.

Howevert, using setParameters() with custom string parameters is somewhat unconventional and may not be officially supported or documented by Android. This means the behavior could vary between devices or Android versions, and there is a risk that it might not work consistently across all Android TV devices.

You might can find something useful with:

echo "system\nglobal\nsecure" | xargs -n 1 settings list|grep audio 

Please notice to make the settings updated in realtime you should use content input or output for content insert --uri content://system/settings/... in adb for example

Thanks for help 😀, this level is so high for, anyway I got work in this device and I gave it to my brother, so I can't test on this device

is there any command to set current_user name ?

how can i do "adb install --bypass-low-target-sdk-block /storage/emulated/0/1.apk" from adb shell, i did tried "pm install --bypass-low-target-sdk-block /storage/6235-3232/1.apk" but did not work

Hi!
I was wondering if there's any way to enable (or actually force) OTG compatibility via ADB, I'm on Android 12 without root, not sure if it helps but the device is a Tecno Pova 4.

Hey i have a FireTV and want to turn off the tv it is connected to. I have the FireTV in my HomeAssistant and im sending adb commands trough it. If i power it off trough HA the stick only goes in standby and the tv is still powered on. I know its possible the the stick turns off the tv since i can say to alexa "turn off tv" and the stick turns the tv off. I tried some commands like input or echo 0x40 0x36 but nothing worked so far. Any suggestions what i could else do?

Why not use FireStick remote contro?

You can try using adb shell the command getevent, maybe it can capture event poweroff from remote control and then use sendevent to replicate event

Here is a script of mine you can use for getevent , it will capture all touches and create the adb shell commands in realtime.

• Generator

Hi.
There is a way to push a file (via adb push) to system/etc folder, on non-rooted Android 14 (Samsung S22)? The system is read-only, so there is no way to push a file, right? Or push function is another thing than copy/paste?

Hello, Is there a way to display the "apps & channel" menu on the Fire TV?

Thanks.

adb shell am start -d "amzn://apps/android?a_lib"

You are correct, there is no way to bypass this. /system path holds locksettings.db and other folders so that would be a big security issue if that was possible.

How do I find the full path for executing the adb pull command when I plug my Android phone to my windows machine?

adb pull [device file location] [local file location] // Copy files from your phone to your computer.

What do I have to do to find the "device file location" ?

you can use /sdcard/[yourfile here] or /storage/self/primary/(internal storage located near the file /storage, you can find the internal storage first). ex: u want store file yourfile.png to /sdcard/pictures/ u must use this command adb pull /sdcard/pictures /[wherethepictures]/yourfile.png

I'm not sure if I get this right maybe @ItzKazuki answer is the one you looking for, however if you want to find a file and where it is stored on the device, you can use find

adb shell find /sdcard -iname "*file*" -type f 

When the file is found, use the above command from @ItzKazuki for "pull" the file to your pc
